The Club actually began loosely in 1956. Bob
Housholder (#18, AZ) sent out the first “Bulletin” in
July 1967, and prior to that he was a master communicator by mail with
dozens of sheep hunters. Dennis Campbell took over in January 1990 and incorporated the organization for the first
time, applying for 501(c)(3) tax-exempt conservation status. We received
that designation in 1991 after a rather extensive exchange of paperwork
with the IRS. It is great to report that in that short history, we have raised millions toward conservation. Details for project funding can be seen below. We strive to have each years funding details posted here by the end of the first quarter of the following year.
